Value

nil

Documentation

If non-nil, prompt user for part of the queue file name.

The file will automatically get the FQM suffix and an embedded sequence number for uniqueness, so don't specify that. feedmail will get rid of all characters other than alphanumeric and hyphen in the results. If this variable is nil or if you just hit return in response to the prompt, feedmail queuing will take care of things properly. At the prompt, completion is available if you want to see what filenames are already in use, though, as noted, you will not be typing a complete file name. You probably don't want to be bothered with this prompting since feedmail, by default, uses queue file names based on the subjects of the messages.
